Where Memories and Art Intertwine: The Story Behind Our Unique Glass Creations
Welcome to DragonFire Glass!
We're a family business in Florida, where my husband, Jay, our daughter, Elizabeth, and I share a love for working with glass. We each bring our own style and ideas to the torch, giving our pendants three distinct looks. It's one of the things that makes our shop special and there's a little something different in each of our approaches to this amazing material.
I'm Anna, and I'm the one behind the scenes keeping the shop running and helping our customers. My journey with glass began in 2001. I'm a self-taught glass artist, and after more than 25 years at the torch, I'm still fascinated by the way glass moves, changes, and reveals its colors in the flame. No two pieces turn out exactly alike, and that's one of the things I love most about what I do.
Our shop began with a simple love of making beautiful things. Over the years, we've grown from creating colorful glass jewelry to offering a variety of keepsakes, including our cremation glass jewelry.
My journey into memorial jewelry began when our daughter wanted a special way to remember her beloved cat. That experience helped me understand just how meaningful it can be to keep a beloved one close. Today, I create each memorial piece with the same care and thoughtfulness I'd want for my own family.
We work primarily with borosilicate glass, shaping it in the flame using techniques we've developed through years of practice and experimentation. Every piece is individually made by hand and carefully kiln-annealed for durability. Whether it's a colorful pendant or a personal memorial keepsake, each piece receives our care and attention.
Thank you for visiting our shop and supporting our small family business. We're happy to share a little of our world of glass with you!
